Dear Citizen of Planet Earth,

I am searching for thougthtful, concerned folks who want to understand 1) the systemic dynamics driving the multiple, interrelated crises (the polycrisis) facing humankind today, 2) the effective approaches to ameliorating the polycrisis, and 3) the potential graceful paths toward desirable and viable futures, i.e., paths that minimize injustice and suffering and allow folks a maximum of local choices about their own future.

The literatures on all of these topics is immense and growing … no one can absorb it all. Thus our dialog must include scholars with many different backgrounds but also ordinary folks of all ages and backgrounds simply because everyone has a stake in the future and therefore everyone must have a voice … or at least, everyone who is awake and concerned must have a voice.

The “VCCs List” page shows a few of the questions various VCC communities are dealing with. All of them could use additional voices.

Let’s talk. I am in Norfok, Virginia (New York time zone) but will happily accommodate folks from around the world. Hoping you will email me: barryc@barryclemson.net

Love and Laughter,

Barry Clemson
